A quiet Sunday. Recorded all of the as-built interior house measurements,
then calculated the wall and floor / ceiling area in each room. As near as I can figure, we have 11,000
square feet of walls and ceiling that will need to be painted. In case you were wondering (and our insurance
company did want to know) the flooring breakdown is:
Concrete 39%
Carpet 35%
Bamboo 11%
Slate 10%
Porcelain
tile 5%
The dehumidifier had
to be thawed out again this morning.
While that was happening, thoroughly cleaned the new house main
level. The heat pump, when running,
emits a medium frequency hum that is much louder than I was expecting. If that is normal, then some more sound
deadening is going to be needed for the guest bedrooms. Or maybe we can convince folks that what is
keeping them up all night is therapeutic white noise… Steve came over for sauna… and brought me a
thanks-for-sharing-your-sauna gift in the form of JW’s eco-friendly
distillation. Had a taste just before
bed and boy, oh, boy is that stuff s∙m∙o∙o∙t∙h!!!!
